A new Deep Rock Galactic Season 6 promo artwork from Ghost Ship Games was shared on the official Discord, and it sparked intense community investigation.
What’s all the fuss about – and should we be scared of Deep Rock Galactic fans? Let’s take a look.
Deep Rock Galactic: Hidden Date
At first glance, the Season 6 artwork looks fairly ordinary, but not to eagle-eyed fans who are masters at spotting hidden clues. This time, the community believes it has uncovered a potential release date. How?
The hints include the number “29” hidden in spider webs, “01” etched into a creature’s skull, and another “26” printed on a rocket booster. Put together, the numbers point to January 29, 2026.
As wild as it sounds, January 2026 aligns perfectly with Ghost Ship Games’ previously suggested release window of “Q1 ’26.”
What’s even more impressive than the theory itself is how quickly the community cracked it – reportedly in under 20 minutes! Compared to notoriously unsolved Easter eggs, such as Red Dead Redemption 2’s spider-web mystery, the speed is genuinely astonishing.
About Deep Rock Galactic Season 6
When it comes to the upcoming season, we already know that it is being developed by the Copenhagen-based studio Invisible Walls. Ghost Ship Games, meanwhile, is focused on Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core, a spin-off featuring roguelike elements.
The confirmed features of Season 6 are already generating excitement and include:

By expanding existing systems with new cosmetics, missions, and enemies, the game continues to attract new players while keeping its long-term community engaged.
